Pout Party by Sarah McColl is a delightful tale about Rue, who wakes up feeling gloomy and out of sorts. Nothing seems to go right, not even her socks! At school, instead of joining in the games, she invites her friends to a pout partyโ€”no happiness allowed. Surprisingly, her friends embrace the idea with big pouts and soon laughter fills the air. This charming story uses bright pastel illustrations to remind children itโ€™s okay to feel down sometimes and that humour can brighten a rough day.

A story that playfully portrays how difficult it can be to put your best foot forward when youโ€™ve woken up on the wrong side of the bed.

Poor Rue wakes up on the wrong side of the bed. Nothing makes her happy. Even her socks aren't cooperating. When she gets to school all her friends want to play, but she's not in the mood. Instead, she invites everyone to join her in a pout party. "No games, no cake. Don't be happy or excited." Unfortunately, everyone thinks Rue's party sounds fun and they all come to show off their biggest pouts. In no time at all, everyone is laughing, but will Rue find the humour when all she wants to do is grumble?

Illustrated in beautiful, bright pastels, Pout Party is a sweet, funny story for every kid who has ever felt out of sorts and needs a smile.
